I wonder what it is myself. He did say how he went about finding out what it is though.

Josh Simpson does some pretty cool stuff with reduction metals. I always liked his mega planets. The tektite looks like it's nothing more then scavo. It is a cool tec but scavo deteriorates over time. It actually has a oily feel that never goes away. I've tried it but never found a good use for it. Maybe I should revisit it and call it tektite. LOL
